Current form: Olympiakos vs AC Milan

Pedro Martins's side still have a shot at qualifying, but they will come into this game knowing that they will need a huge win against AC Milan to make that happen. However, Olympiakos perhaps may be taking some respite from the fact that the Rossoneri have had their ups and downs this season, and also have a frustrating track record when it comes to playing in Greece. Furthermore, Gennaro Gattuso's side have been hit by a major injury crisis, meaning that the ex-midfielder will have to really scramble to scrape together a strong starting XI for this clash.

Milan ended up drawing Torino at the weekend as they failed to fire in a scoreless stalemate. Nonetheless, with cross-town rivals Inter dropping points, they are just three points away from third, but certainly will be looking over their shoulders as Lazio continue to keep up the pressure on them. Having missed out on the Champions League last term, Milan are determined to seal a top four spot, but still remain competitive in the Europa League as well, where they are now set to be joined by both Inter and Napoli next year.

Current position: Olympiakos vs AC Milan

This is where things get very interesting. Only Real Betis have secured their spot in the next round after overtaking Milan in their quartet. However, the Rossoneri are naturally in pole position to qualify for the round of 32 - provided that everything goes their way.

Simply put, a win and they will be through. A draw would even be enough, as Olympiakos will then have eight points. And even a loss could still be fine for Gattuso's team, but it all depends on the nature of the defeat. Olympiakos will have to win by 2-0, 3-1, or by at least three goals. So, if Milan lose 1-0, they are still through. Even if they lost by 3-2, that would still be fine as well. Just not by the aforementioned choices.

A win, of course, for Milan coupled with a loss or a draw for Betis would see the Diavolo leapfrog the Spanish side and qualify for the round of 32 as group winners.

Here's how the two sides compare ahead of the meeting:
